    She might get an outing at Galway at earliest not going to rush her

      Good news. Very much looking forward to seeing her again. Mares Hurdle still the current target with her ??

      • Anyone think that after Allaho's run yesterday he might stick to ryanair and let Energumene go back for the CC? Still early days

          Far too early to know. There's a chance they could all clash at Christmas and then start making plans from there.

          I think a lot will depend on how Shishkin goes next season. If Shishkin looks the real deal I'd expect one of CPS, Energumene and Allaho to have a crack at him. If Shishkin doesn't make it or under performs on the run up to Cheltenham, WPM may run two of them in the Champion Chase.

          Lots of ifs and buts before next March.

          • The Mullins comment about Allaho and CC went in one ear and out the other when i heard it. Put all my eggs into the Ryanair basket just after the fest.

              Agree. Mullins is desperate to finally win a CC so he could throw a few at it should Shishkin not look all that. Allaho around Cheltenham again over 2 on softer ground could still be very interesting.

              • Worth remembering that Mullins wasn't running away from Shishkin with Energumene in the Arkle and confidence appeared very high until he was ruled out, and from memory the market followed suit with Energumene around 15/8 when pulled ?
                I'd expect the Champion Chase to be his initial target and only if he lacks a gear will they look to stepping him up...

                • Think I've found a real nice price in 14/1 TWAR for Dark Raven. He has been one of the most impressive bumper winners this season - he was bought privately by Munir/Suede after his first win then won really nicely again. He will go in to the season quite high on my list for novice hurdles - I think he could turn out to be a Ballymore horse - but he could end up in either of the 3 novice hurdles and of course the handicaps! 14/1 TWA for a horse who is with the best trainer and could end up in 1 of 5 or 6 races is a nice price to me, especially when I think he could be really good as it is. Sky 12's, William Hill 14's.

                  • I think Dark Raven is nice as well OverTheLast, Bumper wins have looked smart
                    I've backed him for the Supreme as looked speedy and owners Munir and Souede have a horse I like called O'Toole who looks a Ballymore type over 2 and a half.

                            Where do you think Torygraph will go Somer ??., got him in a Lifechanger multi and @ 33-1 - n.h.chs.

                              Really not a clue BC. Was just looking for something at a price and half a chance of running at the fest with prices being so bad at the mo. I really am struggling to back anything because of the prices.

                                I added Ramillies for the Al Bartlett - @ 33-1 , yesterday . Looked like he needed a trip to me and Willie Mullins was quite sweet on him before this year's Festival .
                                Apart from a few multi's , ( We live in hope !! ) haven't had many bets myself last few weeks for Cheltenham. Topping up on a few mainly.
